Weekly Update: April 14, 2018

Hello Robina Families,

Wow, what a week! We were immersed in the Arts and there were so many opportunities to enhance our culture. The staff and students outdid themselves with all the beautiful art and displays that were placed around our school. It was like teaching in a culture rich art gallery. Our kinders went to WEM sea life caverns for some hands on learning and our track students headed to the Butterdome for Klondike Relays. What was truly amazing was the focused learning that was happening everywhere in between all of the events. One of our boys floor hockey teams was at a tournament in Leduc this past weekend and the other team plays in Beaumont this

Assembly Update:

We are continuing our theme trust, honesty and integrity. Students listened to stories and participated in some interesting scenario questions in the small assemblies during the week. Friday's assembly was dedicated to the RBES Arts performance which was just beautiful. All of the grades presented something and we heard songs, watched dances, listened to hand bells and saw a teaser for the grade 4 drama production.

CONGRATULATIONS!!! to OUR STUDENTS OF THE WEEK:

Humbolt Strong Jersey Day

During all of the fun and excitement of the Celebration of the Arts, we took some time on Thursday to join the rest of Canada to remember the Humbolt Broncos.

Next Year Planning

We do have a quick survey for all of our families that we want you to fill out as we want to know if you are planning on returning to Robina Baker or if you are moving out of town or to a different school in the Fall.   In order to assist us with our planning for next year, please click on this link and fill out the survey. Your timely response is critical for planning and staffing next year. If you already completed this survey - thank you so much!

If your child currently attends Robina Baker you do not have to register online for next year.  If you have a younger child that is old enough for Pre-School (4 years old by February) or Kindergarten (5 years old by February) then you can register now for school for next year!  If your child is moving on to Riverview Middle School their file will be transferred to that school at the end of June.

You Can Register For Pre-School or Kindergarten Now!
